Right now, you and your loved ones might be healthy and capable. But imagine how peaceful you would feel knowing you’ve planned for the unexpected. Planning isn’t just about facing life today; it’s about creating a buffer for whatever lies ahead, especially in case of a disability. Contingency planning through special needs trusts ensures you protect yourself and those you love no matter what happens.
Special needs planning helps ensure that people who can’t care for themselves stay eligible for government benefits throughout their lives. Caring for a loved one with special needs is often a long-term commitment filled with challenges like changes in income, care, or coverage. It might feel overwhelming. But contacting a special needs planning attorney early can ease your mind, helping you shape a lasting safety net.
A will guides your assets and your loved ones through your final chapter. But not every will suits every situation; each has advantages and disadvantages. Let’s explore some of the most common types of wills and their purposes in estate planning.
